Tue, 08 Nov 2011 17:05:51 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=34221#comment-56777if the new deal protects big spending clubs and maintains a league where there are 20 teams at the start of every season that everyone knows have no chance of making the championship (pause breath) and if it allows the lebrons of the league to sit down with their buddies and coronate some sexy city with great nightclubs as the next championship town… then i want nothing to do with the NBA. why? because i know my team, which i have pulled for 35 years and which has never sniffed an appearance in the finals, will remain the chum of the NBA. (voice starting to crack) the proper settlement to this lockout could give fans in 20 cities some hope and a sense of participation in this sport. if it fails to create a balanced league, the lockout fails the fans!

The MLE should be changed to the underperforming-yet-talented-player-who-overachieves-in-his-contract-year-and-never-lives-up-to-the-contract exception.
